This is by far the best dictionary I've ever used among many others in my library, at home and on mobile phone. Complete, authoritative, practical and perfectly designed. It is worth the purchase!!!Well done!
A great dictionary and app. Too bad Oxford went to a subscription model. Glad I purchased this before the subscription came into effect. I'll certainly not pay $40 a month for a reference text (or $0.50 a month for that matter), but I thank the app developer for again making this available in the app store.
Nice, but I think this has been abandoned. Its been almost 2 years when it was updated last.
Saved words I wanted to remember as favourites and now I find that when I click on one of the words, it takes me to a different one! Shocking for an app this expensive
Brill app, especially the etymology bit, always fascinating and illuminating to see where the roots of words come from and what the parts of words can mean.
Superb
you can't search (for a word) in portrait mode!
Best I've found yet. Its only shortcoming: there's no American dialectal pronunciation.
Does not send notifications of new words each day, I'm surprised since it was a paid app. You would expect these sort of issues from a free app!!
The Oxford English Dictionary is great, don't get me wrong. This two-bit (yes, ¼ byte) company they contracted to build an app, on the other hand, seems to have been ill-equipped for the job. Clearly nobody tested the UI with, you know, actual users. It is so cluttered and unpolished. Secondly, whose bright idea was it to exclude the thesaurus? If I'm paying $10 for this app, I expect it to compete with other dictionary apps that are free. The standalone thesaurus app is no good. Oy vey...
